Chapter 286: Stopping the Enemy on the South Shore (5)

The two white blades struck each other, and the flames flew everywhere. Although Li Yanzhi was heavily armoured, because of his heavy armor and lack of flexibility, he was unable to support the strength and flexibility of the thousand cavalry commanders. In the midst of more than a dozen times, the armor on his body had been slashed twice by the enemy. However, thanks to the excellent protection, except for the sparks splashing, these attacks have not had time to bring any damage to Li Yanjiong.

However, Li Yanzhi also knew in his heart that if he allowed this battle to continue like this, he would die at the hands of this Xiongnu general sooner or later. The opponent is wearing leather armor, and his flexibility is naturally beyond his ability. He had only made several powerful attacks, but they were either blocked or dodged by the other party. And the other party's lightning-fast slash and stab, even if he can dodge or block it, he is embarrassed.

Iron armor does not cover the whole body, and the arms, legs, shoulder sockets, etc. are all weak points. However, if this development continues, sooner or later, the other party will take advantage of these weaknesses to deal a fatal blow to themselves. Just now, the other party slashed at a shoulder armor, and the rope that bound the nail leaf was disengaged, and the nail leaf fell scattered, revealing the leather lining.

This enemy general has obviously been in battle for a long time, and he does not know how many dead souls are under the sword. Every time he attacks, whether it is virtual or real, it can always bring Li Yanzhi a feeling of extreme danger. And every time Li Yanzhi tried his best to counterattack and slash, he could always block it easily. After going back and forth, the two fought for more than 20 years, and Li Yanzhi was already out of breath. And the enemy general is still calm and calm.

Qin Dayong roared, ran a few steps with the long knife in his hand, and was about to attack the thousand cavalry commander with Li Yanzhi. However, a cavalry soldier behind the thousand cavalry commander swung his spear and swept Qin Dayong's calf with a sweep. Under the pain, Qin Dayong's body stagnated, but he managed to hold on. He looked up and saw the knight with the spear in his hand, looking at him with a slight defiance. Seeing Qin Dayong's angry gaze coldly swept over, the cavalry rounded his right arm again, and the spear in his hand once again stabbed straight towards Qin Dayong like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter.

Qin Dayong didn't dare to hold it up, holding the knife in both hands, and forcefully blocking the spear to one side. When the horseman saw that he could not strike a blow, he quickly put away his gun, and then clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and the war horse under his crotch stepped over the corpse lying on the ground. He sat firmly on the horse's back with the reins of his horse in one hand, and the spear in his right hand had already stabbed three times in succession. Qin Dayong was also stumbling for a while, and he was embarrassed.

The remaining elite Hun cavalry joined the siege of the ironclad infantry soldiers. Seeing that the area where the main general was located was submerged by Hu Qi, Zhou Xing's heart was also tight, he couldn't sit still anymore, and hurriedly took a few steps to climb the dirt slope on the side, and saw that Li Yanzhi was fighting with a Hu general to the end, looking at the situation, it seemed that he was still slightly behind. He hurriedly picked up the bamboo whistle and blew out a series of short and continuous notes. The hundreds of auxiliaries who were on standby in the rear stood by with guns and shields, and marched forward in full gear under the orders of their respective generals.

In his hurry, Li Yanzhi had already fought with the white blade of the thousand horsemen for forty or fifty times. Unlike Fang Cai's fight with those Hun cavalrymen, at this moment, Li Yanzhi obviously felt that his physical strength was running out rapidly. In this face-to-face life-and-death struggle, the rapid loss of one party's physical strength means that he has not been able to hold out for long.

The commander of the thousand cavalry slashed horizontally at Li Yanzhi's side, and Li Yanzhi hurriedly waved his knife to block. Unexpectedly, the other party just sold a false trick. Seeing Li Yanzhi make a move to block, the thousand cavalry commander turned his wrist, and the ring head knife turned around again, stabbing straight towards Li Yanzhi's torso.

This straight stab came quickly, and Li Yanzhi broke out in a cold sweat when he saw this. Although this iron armor has excellent protection, it is absolutely impossible to completely defend against the stabbing of sharp weapons. As he spun around, the blade of the opponent's straight stab scraped across the surface of the iron armor on his chest, making an extremely piercing sound. In the process of gold and iron clashing, dazzling sparks burst out in all directions. And Li Yanzhi, who was tired, felt more and more powerless to fight the enemy general in front of him.

Taking advantage of the fact that the enemy general did not have time to accept the recruitment, Li Yanzhi's right hand suddenly slashed out, and the blade pointed directly at the head of the enemy general. However, the enemy general moved quickly to avoid his straight slash, held the knife in his hand again, and took advantage of Li Yanzhi's move to use the old, and stabbed Li Yanzhi in the left chest.

In an instant of life and death, the blade of the knife in the hand of the enemy general was infinitely magnified in Li Yanzhi's eyes. A blade glowing with cold light reflected in his pupils, as if he could still see the blood that had not yet dried up on the blade. But I don't know who left it. Between life and death, Li Yanzhi couldn't think about it anymore. His left hand jerked up, already grasping the blade of his opponent's blade.

The sharp pain on his left hand made Li Yanzhi's heart go crazy. He stared at the enemy general like a beast. And the enemy general had a hint of surprise in his eyes at this time, he struggled to draw the knife, but found that the knife was tightly grasped by Li Yanzhi, and he couldn't move. And Li Yanzhi had a ring knife in his hand, but he stabbed him with a fierce force!

The Huns were shocked, and Li Yanzhi's resoluteness made many thoughts flash through his mind, and his reaction was half a beat slower. However, at this moment, the knife in Li Yanzhi's hand had already broken through the leather armor on his body and stabbed him in the abdomen.

The sharp pain in the abdomen also made the commander of the thousand horses can't help but roar. Immediately, he no longer drew the knife, but pushed the knife hard in the direction of Li Yanzhi in turn. hopes to die with Li Yanzhi.

Li Yanzhi's left hand was already unconscious in pain. However, all he could do was keep his left hand gripping the enemy's blade tightly. Rao was like this, and the sword of the thousand horsemen was still advancing towards his left chest inch by inch. In a panic, Li Yanzhi slammed his right hand. The knife that had just stabbed the enemy general in the abdomen turned half a circle in his hand.

The churning of the blade in his body tore through the viscera of the Thousand Riders. It finally made him cry out in pain. His right hand, on the other hand, was no longer able to push forward. Li Yanzhi gritted his teeth and continued to rotate the knife in his right hand for half a circle. With these continuous agitations, the thousand horsemen could no longer bear the sharp pain, and he let go of his hands, hugged his abdomen and fell backwards in a miserable wail.

Li Yanzhi's face was already distorted. He drew his knife, and the beads of sweat on his face had already gathered into a stream, flowing freely towards his jaw. The numb and almost unconscious left hand finally let go, and the knife that was still stained with his blood fell to the ground with a thud. In the deepening of the night, there was a terrible cold and bloody light.

Li Yanzhi knocked down the enemy general, but stood in place and was stunned for a few breaths. The Hun cavalry on the side saw their main general fall to the ground and howled miserably, and they all freed themselves from the fight with the foot soldiers and gathered towards Li Yanzhi's side. Seeing that his thousand cavalry commanders were still rolling to the ground, he howled miserably. These loyal guards of his came together and rushed towards Li Yanzhi.

More than a dozen horsemen straddled the ground on both sides of the army and the corpses of war horses. They raised their guns and pointed obliquely, and they were about to rush to kill Li Yanzhi.

"Li Sima!" Zhou Xing led hundreds of auxiliary soldiers, and he had already entered the front line of the battle between the two armies, and when he saw that Li Yanzhi was still stunned in place, he yelled. When Li Yanzhi heard Zhou Xing calling him, he turned his head to the side, and he already noticed that more than a dozen horses were only more than ten steps away from him. A sharp pain in his left hand made him more awake on the battlefield.

After sobering up, Li Yanzhi hurriedly turned around and ran a few steps to meet the auxiliary array led by Zhou Xing. Seeing that Li Yanzhi had submerged into the advancing spear array, the dozen or so horsemen unwillingly turned their horses' heads and turned to try to rescue the thousand horsemen who had fallen to the ground.

Zhou Xing saw that these Hu Qi were so attentive, and he roughly knew that the identity of this Hu general was not low. Seeing that the enemy cavalry had rushed to the front of Nahu, Zhou Xing immediately held the spear in his hand with his backhand, looked at the first Hu horseman, and threw it vigorously.

At first, Hu Qi was caught off guard and was suddenly stabbed into the horse's belly by Zhou Xing's flying spear. Zhou Xing's strength was not small, and the spear almost pierced the horse's belly. Xu stabbed some vital organ, and the horse did not scream and jump wildly, but immediately fell to the ground. Hu Qi on horseback didn't have time to react, one leg was pressed to the ground by the war horse, and at this time he was trying to pull his leg out from under the body of the war horse with all his strength, and from time to time let out a high-pitched howl.

The spear-like auxiliaries had advanced to the front, and when the horsemen saw that there was no hope of rescuing the thousand horsemen, they turned their horses and retreated. Zhou Xing pulled out the ring knife on his waist, pointed diagonally forward, and shouted: "Kill!" ”

"Kill! Kill! Kill! The auxiliaries shouted three times, and the sound shook the sky. The foot soldiers fighting with Hu Qi in front of them were already showing a bit of fatigue. At this time, when they heard the sound of killing behind the battle, they turned their heads one after another, and saw that the neatly arranged gun array of their auxiliary soldiers slowly advanced to help the battle, and their morale was greatly boosted for a while, and the generals fought bravely, and the Hu cavalry who was still in a state of stalemate was killed and retreated. Having lost mobility and confined to this narrow valley, these cavalry faced this heavy infantry and had nothing more than to be slaughtered.

However, with a firm will and a sense of superiority as Liu Zhao's elite, this Hu cavalry was able to hold on in the face of such huge casualties. However, Li Yanzhi decided to use one thing as the last straw that crushed them.

Li Yanzhi held the knife tightly in his right hand, brushed aside the auxiliary soldiers in front of him, and walked in front of the thousand cavalry commanders who were still lying on the ground, like a gossamer, raised the knife high, and slashed it fiercely. The thousand horsemen didn't say a word, and they were already in a different place. Zhou Xing hurriedly stepped forward, lifted the human head, and called a soldier beside him, and tied the head behind the tip of his spear.

Zhou Xing raised his spear and shouted: "The enemy general is dead!" Those who descend will not be killed! ”

The surrounding auxiliaries were also quite excited when they saw this. They shouted with Zhou Xing: "The enemy general is dead!" Those who descend will not be killed! ”

Li Yanzhi listened to it in his ears, but he couldn't cry or laugh. He touched Zhou Xing with his elbow and said, "It's strange that they can understand such a shout." Go find a soldier who can talk nonsense and shout. ”

When Zhou Xing heard the order, his eyes had already looked to the side, and he shouted: "Chen Zhong! ”

One of the soldiers in the array quickly answered the order, and then came to the front of the two generals. After hearing Li Yanzhi's request, the soldier repeated Fang Cai Zhou Xing's words in Hu at the top of his throat.

Immediately, the Hun cavalry, who were still fighting with the foot soldiers, heard a burst of nonsense shouting in the enemy's formation. When many people heard this shouting, their faces changed. When he looked into the middle of the enemy formation, he saw a spear erected in the middle of the enemy formation. On the tip of the spear, a human head is carried. If you look closely, the head is the commander of a thousand horses!

"The enemy is dead! Those who descend will not be killed! ”

Under the powerful psychological offensive of the Liangzhou soldiers, looking at the head of their main general that had been hung high, and the enemy's iron-armored infantry defense like an iron wall, these arrogant Hun cavalry soldiers were finally on the verge of collapse. Many of the horsemen in the rear formation had begun to turn their horses and flee towards their own formation. These fleeing horsemen quickly caused a chain reaction. Even the cavalrymen, who were still fighting with the foot soldiers in front of the battle, got rid of each other's entanglements as soon as possible and fled backwards.

Seeing the enemy fleeing one after another, the soldiers of Juxian County erupted in a thunderous cheer. They symbolically chased for a while, and chopped over a dozen Hun cavalrymen who had lost their horses and fled back on foot, and each cut off their heads before turning back to their own formation.

Looking at the backs of the Hun cavalry. Li Yanzhi's heart was relieved. Fang felt dizzy for a while. He was staggering, but was held up by Zhou Xing.

After letting go of his thoughts, Li Yanzhi felt the sharp pain in the palm of his left hand more and more vividly. His face was a little pale, but he managed to straighten up. With the support of Zhou Xing and another soldier, one left and one right, they walked to the rear step by step.

Seeing that their own generals were wounded in battle, the soldiers along the way were all solemn. Li Yanzhi arranged everything to Zhou Xing as he walked. After the battle, it was still necessary to borrow the rejection of horses and other things to arrange the front, and leave sharp soldiers to defend it in case the enemy counterattacked again. The corpse of the enemy was cut off as a proof of merit. The belongings found on the dead of the enemy returned to the soldiers.

After the head is cut, the corpses of the enemy are buried in a centralized manner. The bodies of their own fallen soldiers must be transported back to the county seat and buried near the Martyrs' Shrine. Send sentry cavalry to continue to observe and monitor the enemy's next move, and at the same time send people to the mountain pass to contact Cao Jian, and decide whether to withdraw this blocking force according to the situation. After explaining a series of things, Zhou Xing helped Li Yanzhi to sit down next to a big rock. Immediately called the doctors of the team to treat Li Yanzhi's injuries. He went to arrange everything after the war.

The doctor came and dressed Li Yanzhi with the wound medicine, and then asked him to sit quietly and rest, and stop working hard. has just experienced a life-and-death struggle, and Li Yanzhi is also quite tired, but he is also happy to be busy. There were some wounded soldiers sitting around Dashi, looking at the head general of the army who was high in the past, and his expression was no longer afraid.

Li Yanzhi looked around and saw that the soldiers around him were all sitting still. I was also surprised. However, as soon as he thought about it, he knew that he was here, which made these soldiers a little unable to let go, so he was also relieved. Blood was still pouring from the wounded white cloth on his left hand, and it was shocking to see it in the eyes of the soldiers.

"All the kings fought bravely against the enemy, and when they go back, they will be rewarded!" Li Yanzhi wanted to break the wordless embarrassment between him and these wounded soldiers, so he took the lead in speaking.

"Sima Li, what can you appreciate?" An auxiliary soldier wounded in the leg asked boldly. They have not been in the army for a long time, and they have not been subject to strict military discipline for too long, so they are naturally more courageous.

"Whoever fights with the enemy and is wounded, each person will have three hundred dollars, three horses of cloth, one sheep, and one stone of grain!" Li Yanzhi thought about it for a while, and offered a price that he felt he could afford with the current financial resources of the county. However, as soon as the words fell, the surrounding soldiers were already amazed.

"Li Sima, the villain hasn't married yet, I don't want sheep, do you want an aunt?" The auxiliary soldier asked again.

"Haha, a sheep wants to change to a big living person, you kid is a good one-handed calculation." Li Yanzhi said with a smile: "What's your name?" ”

The auxiliary soldier's expression suddenly twisted, and his voice also lowered, and he muttered for a long time: "Villain...... The villain's name is Wang Le......"

"Okay, Wang Le. Ben will promise you. On the day of retreat, Ben will personally be the matchmaker for you! Li Yanzhi said with a smile, and when the wounded soldiers around heard this, they laughed and exchanged ears, adding a touch of color to this tragic battlefield.
